Chapter 1185: Hongmen Banquet


This sentence was thought up by Lao Zuo himself.

This sentence was not included in the dialogues I had with him before.

I have to say that this guy is really good at deceiving.

He just opens his mouth and doesn't have to spend any time thinking.

Hearing what Lao Zuo said, Wang Muzhai immediately relaxed a lot: "Isn't it just digging a hole?

Just tell me and I will send a few people over to help.

What else is there to do like a mobilization meeting?

Master Zuo, you are too polite." ” Lao Zuo waved his hand and said: "The work is too heavy, and I am afraid that everyone will not want to do it.

Head Wang, don't worry, this lunch at noon is mine, and I will never waste it on you."

Wang Muzhai also changed his face and said very politely: "Master Zuo, what are you talking about?

You saved Changgeng Mountain.

I should spend a little money.

To be honest, it's not that I am stingy.

I just thought, again To hold such a luncheon, I am afraid that the few things in stock will not be enough to survive this winter.

Oh, it is indeed a bit difficult, please don't mind, Master Zuo. " Lao Zuo also had a fake attitude: "I understand, I understand.

But again, don't worry, Mr.

Wang, at the latest the morning after tomorrow, someone will send us food.

What they bring will definitely be enough for you to eat." years.”

Wang Muzhai inquired: "There are still large troops behind."

Lao Zuo acted matter-of-factly: "That's natural.

We are just the vanguard.

There are a large number of people coming from behind.

If they don't come, just a few of us can't surround such a big mountain, right?"

Wang Muzhai nodded seriously: "Yes, yes, that's true."

After that, Lao Zuo exchanged a few casual greetings with Wang Muzhai before leaving with me.

On the way back to the inn, I glanced at Lao Zuo several times and deliberately made a strange expression.

Lao Zuo glanced at me: "Okay, don't look at me like that."

I couldn't help but laugh: "I really didn't see it.

You are quite hypocritical once you act like this."

Lao Zuo expressed helplessness about this: "There is nothing you can do about it.

People can't help themselves in the world.

These are all survival skills.

Of course you don't have to be hypocritical.

You are a shady person and cannot lie by nature.

Of course you can be straightforward.

Even if you offend others by speaking rudely, most people will not go out of their way to blame you.

It is different for us.

If we speak inappropriately, we are mean and inconsiderate of other people's feelings.

If we speak too nicely, we will be called hypocritical by others. " I said, "I didn't expect you to have so much resentment in your heart."

Lao Zuo smiled: "As long as there are setbacks in a person's life, there will be resentment in his heart.

The key question is how to deal with resentment.

Should you stand there with self-pity and wait for others to save you, or should you suppress your resentment and find a way to solve the problem at hand?

difficulties.”

Alas, the preaching started again.

I used to often see Lao Zuo preaching to Liu Shangang, and I didn't think it was anything.

But now that he started nagging at me, I realized that this guy's voice has a magical power.

When he preached to me, I didn't even think about hitting him.

His impulse.

I wouldn't have such an impulse when the second master was preaching to me.

That was mainly because I didn't dare to have such an impulse.

In any case, what Lao Zuo and Er Ye said is actually quite reasonable.

I don't like to listen to other people's preaching, just because I actually understand what they say, and I can indeed do it.

Hey, actually I think the reason why some people like to preach is not because they really think what they say can help you.

They just simply enjoy the feeling of giving guidance.

Is there a little bit of darkness inside me?

We had agreed with Wang Muzhai to have a banquet at noon, but it was still some time before noon, so I sent Zhang Donghai and Liu Shangang from the old left wing to station on the east and west roads of the mountain gate to monitor Wang Muzhai's movements.

We were concerned that he might escape before noon.

Fortunately, until noon, Wang Muzhai was still staying in the Mingtang and seemed to have no intention of escaping.

I don't know if it was Lao Zuo's words that really fooled him, or if this guy's IQ is really a bit low.

If it were anyone else, he would definitely be able to tell that the banquet at noon today would definitely be a Hongmen Banquet.

However, it is also possible that Wang Muzhai is too confident in his plastic surgery skills and thinks that we cannot pose any threat to him.

It is true that Wang Muzhai's plastic surgery skills are indeed superb, but Jing Zimai's disguise skills are no joke.

Especially the disguise potion prepared by Jing Zimai, even if it is applied on the face of a person who does not understand the art of disguise, it can cause huge changes in the other person's facial features.

By the way, I asked Zhang Donghai to prepare a pack of "special" disguise powder this morning.

It will come in handy at noon today.

At three o'clock in the morning, the luncheon was held as scheduled.

Except for Du Kang who went to Shanwai Mountain alone to find Tang Shaoqing's hiding place, and Liang Houzai who stayed in the post house to guard the prisoners, everyone else was present.

Probably because they were able to eat meat again, the interest of the disciples in Changgeng Mountain became extremely high.

Before Lao Zuo and I had even entered the door, someone came up and got close to us.

If they were just pretending to come over to chat, I would probably feel that these people were ridiculous, and I wouldn't have any other discomfort in my heart.

But now that these people are really enthusiastic, I can't stand it, if it weren't for the sake of face. , wishing they could hide behind Li Huaishan and Huang Yuzhong.

No way, I felt uncomfortable all over when I met such an enthusiastic crowd.

Lao Zuo was well aware of my temperament, so he alone blocked the surrounding Chang Gengshan disciples, and had full authority to greet them on behalf of everyone.

Among our group, Lao Zuo is indeed the only one who is good at handling such interpersonal relationships.

He originally has a kind of personality charm that makes people want to get close to him, and he is also very eloquent.

Consider him a crony.

That's right, cronies, not friends.

It can be seen that Changgeng Mountain is also divided into two or three small camps.

These camps are wary of each other, but they all show full trust in Lao Zuo.

They undermine each other, but never demolish Lao Zuo.

On the road from outside the Mingtang to the inside of the Mingtang, the most frequently asked question by Chang Gengshan disciples is still "What is the outside world like?"

Lao Zuo's answer was still to suggest that they go out more and take a look.

Even though the answers they got were exactly the same every time, these disciples still kept asking questions over and over again, and no matter how many times Lao Zuo responded, he never looked bored at all.

I suddenly realized that Lao Zuo especially needed the current atmosphere.

He took the initiative to greet the Chang Gung Mountain disciples on our behalf, which was actually building momentum for the next action.

These Chang Gengshan disciples really like Lao Zuo so much, which will indeed be of great benefit to our next actions.

Just like last time, the few of us were led by Wang Muzhai to sit at the round table in the center of the Ming Hall.

There were several tables in the hall, and the seats were all Chang Gengshan disciples who were of the same generation as Zhong Youtang.

The junior disciples could not enter the hall, but Can set up a table outside.

Everyone else was seated, but Zhong Youtang stood next to Wang Muzhai, acting as the sommelier.

This time Wang Muzhai didn't dare to compete with Lao Zuo over wine.

He was very timid and took a wooden bowl, which was filled with rice porridge.

When all the dishes were served, Lao Zuo started the first round of testing.

He waved to Zhong Youtang: "You also sit down and eat.

I'm the only one drinking today.

There's no need to find someone to pour the wine.

Come on, we're here It’s quite spacious, so come and sit.”

Of course Zhong Youtang wanted to sit down and eat.

From the moment the first meat dish was placed on the table, his eyes straightened and he stared blankly at the plate of meat, his eyes never stopping for a moment.

To be honest, seeing Zhong Youtang's appearance, I really felt a little pitiful for him.

Hearing what Lao Zuo said, Zhong Youtang was excited at first, but then he looked at Wang Muzhai with great fear.

Seeing that Wang Muzhai did not agree, he did not dare to sit down.

Long Yanxing may not know our plan, but he still said cooperatively: "If Master Zuo asks you to sit, just go to the left.

Look, I am the supervisor of Changgeng Mountain.

In terms of seniority, I am the same as your master, right?"

The leader is my master-uncle, why don’t you listen to his words?"

This is a very disrespectful statement.

According to what he means, he and Wang Muzhai are of the same generation.

When Wang Muzhai meets Lao Zuo, how can he call him an ancestor?

In fact, this is also part of the temptation.

Wang Muzhai's face suddenly turned ugly, but the Chang Gengshan disciples in the hall did not hear the mystery behind Long Yanxing's words.

You must know that what the Chang Gengshan disciples care about most is the self-esteem in their hearts.

Now that they have put aside their sensitivity in front of us, it shows that they really trust us, or in other words, they really trust Lao Zuo.

If someone saves me three times in a row and is willing to treat me as an equal, I am also willing to trust that person.

Furthermore, the people of Changgeng Mountain have lived in the mountains and forests for a long time, so their moods are actually not as complicated as those outside, and they are indeed easier to conquer.

Seeing that Wang Muzhai still refused to let go, Lao Zuo said to Wang Muzhai: "If Zhong Youtang doesn't sit down, no one will drink with me.

Master Wang, how about you drink with me."

These words probably gave Wang Muzhai a strong desire to survive.

He immediately said to Zhong Youtang: "Zuo Zhang is not an outsider.

Since he asked you to sit down, then you can sit down and eat."

Zhong Youtang immediately became happy, and Lao Zuo stretched out his hand and pulled him to sit next to him.

Neither Master and Disciple Wang Muzhai nor the other Chang Gengshan disciples in the Ming Hall noticed the details on the old left hand.

The moment he waved his hand to pull Zhong Youtang, he shook his cuffs with his wrist, and sprinkled the disguise powder that Zhang Donghai had prepared in advance into Wang Muzhai's porridge bowl.

The moment he stopped, Lao Zuo took another poison-preventing pill.

Crush it and put a small amount of powder into the cuff.

Zhang Donghai said that this special disguise powder can indeed be taken orally, but the effect is slow.

It takes about five or six minutes to slowly change a person's face.

The entire process of facial change will last about a minute, but once the disguise is Complete, unless the poison in the powder is released, it will not be able to return to its original appearance within half a month
